[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v5 1/2] lavc: add HWACCEL_CAP_RESET_WITHOUT_UNINIT capacity for hwaccel

[Fei Wang]

The capacity can avoid hwaccel being uninited when do the reset. It
provides the method for hwaccel if it still want to use the previous
initialized configuration after reset. And the configuration can be
updated in AVHWAccel.init() if needed.

For example, when use vaapi vp9 decode dynamic resolution clips, need
to avoid changing vaContext in avctx->internal->hwaccel_priv_data if
current frame resolution change and it reference a pervious frame with
different resolution. Otherwise reference frame's information bound
in vaContext will be lost, then corrupt current frame.

update:
1. consider the case of va_config/va_context equal to 0.
